Wetlands Cleanup






On July 18, 2009 we were lucky enough to have 5 Volunteer Boy Scouts pull invasive weeds from the new Wetlands. All in all they volunteered 12.5 hours! Chris Mayhew and his son Cody as well as Robert Upchurch with his grandsons Dustin and Justin Glass all donated their Saturday to the betterment and beautification of the wetlands.

Here are some photos of the group working!

To anyone who missed the butterfly release you are still able to visit the Butterfly Habitat to check out the 200 butterflies that were released, among the species released were beautiful Monarchs (as pictured in the previous blog)
